MG Life:
Prof. Dr. dr Edinger, you are the head of the International Academy for Regulatory Medicine and Consciousness Research, INAKARB for short, and you deal intensively with the topic of space medicine. First of all, can you briefly explain to us what we can imagine by that and what differentiates you from conventional medicine in the way you work?
Prof. Dr. dr Edinger:
You're welcome. Our research focuses on the approach of using the medical knowledge gained in space travel for practical medical work. With our holistic approach, we continue where conventional medicine reaches its limits - because we not only treat the symptoms, but also get to the bottom of their causes in order to initiate an effective and sustainable regulatory process. The interaction of interdisciplinary approaches leads to a holistic view of the human body and opens up the most modern therapy options.
MG Life:
This holistic approach is also reflected in your therapy recommendations. What role do dietary supplements play in treatment concepts?
Prof. Dr. dr Edinger:
Without vital substance supplements, important metabolic processes cannot take place at all. Therefore, they are an essential part of the therapy procedure. In close cooperation with the ENKI Institute, INAKARB researches highly effective combinations of active ingredients and in this way develops holistic health concepts with which almost every disease of civilization can be effectively combated - while completely dispensing with aggressive pharmaceuticals.
MG Life:
In your long career as a practicing physician you have treated more than 40.000 patients. You diagnose very thoroughly before you and your team of therapists do the “work” on people. How often was there a magnesium deficiency in addition to other findings?
Prof. Dr. dr Edinger:
The absorption of nutrients is different for every human being due to their individual genetic requirements – this is referred to as the concept of biochemical individuality. Comprehensive, individual diagnostics are therefore characteristic of INAKARB, as they allow us to make precise statements about the patient's regulatory status. This would not be possible with the conventional methods of conventional medicine at this depth. But to get to the heart of your question, magnesium deficiency — also known as hypomagnesemia — is common. Our body needs about 2 grams of magnesium every day, as it is involved in more than 30.000 metabolic processes, but cannot produce the mineral itself. In addition, many people suffer from polymorphisms, i.e. reduced activation of enzyme cascades caused by environmental toxins, vaccinations, antibiotics, etc. This leads to a magnesium deficiency in about 90 percent of patients.
MG Life:
What is magnesium responsible for in our organism?
Prof. Dr. dr Edinger:
Answering this in detail would go beyond the scope of our interview. Therefore, I would like to limit myself to the most important details: Magnesium is an essential component of numerous vital metabolic processes. The mineral is important for muscle contraction, for communication between nerve cells and between nerve and muscle cells, and for heart activity. The mineral is also involved in the formation of bones and teeth. In addition, magnesium is of great importance for fat and carbohydrate metabolism.
MG Life:
What are the consequences of a magnesium deficiency for the human body?
Prof. Dr. dr Edinger:
If the substance is missing in the body, a large number of diseases can develop. This ranges from symptoms of fatigue, sleep disorders, inner restlessness and headaches to sensitivity or circulatory disorders to pronounced DNA errors. Magnesium is also an extremely important building block for muscles and bones. It is not for nothing that millions of people suffer from nocturnal muscle cramps or break bones when they fall. Long-term consequences of a magnesium deficiency are, for example, the calcification of blood vessels and kidneys as well as cardiovascular diseases - which is why many heart attack patients are given magnesium intravenously in high doses. Even a dose of 1-1,5 grams can normalize blood pressure in hypertension. One should not underestimate the consequences of magnesium deficiency on the calcium balance. Calcium cannot be supplied to the body in high doses, since it is toxic from about 1,5 grams, but it is imminently important for bone formation. The scientist Kervran was able to prove that the body is able to obtain the calcium required for the body from potassium, magnesium and silicon through an atomic conversion process.
MG Life:
According to your experience and knowledge, what are the causes of this widespread magnesium deficiency?
Prof. Dr. dr Edinger:
Our lives have changed significantly in the past 30 years. Mainly due to stress - who doesn't have one from the single mother to the skilled worker and the manager - almost everyone suffers from stress. This increases the need for magnesium. In addition, the quality of our food has deteriorated considerably due to sugary drinks and fast food. Alcohol and nicotine in particular, but also medication, are other "magnesium thieves" and drastically increase the requirement. Who doesn't discover for themselves that they regularly use such products.
MG Life:
There are countless magnesium products, from effervescent tablets to powders to use on the skin. Which dosage form do you recommend?
Prof. Dr. dr Edinger:
Here my experiences say the following: The oral intake of magnesium preparations is tolerated differently by people, some of the patients report complaints in the gastrointestinal area. The problem here is often the intestinal-blood barrier or the lack of a protective surface on the inner intestinal wall. In addition, more than 80 percent of the population now suffer from the so-called "leaky gut syndrome", which makes the body particularly susceptible to pathogenic germs, especially Candida. In addition, there is always the question of the quality of the purchased tablets or powder solutions - here at the ENKI Institute, specially developed quality standards ensure the greatest possible product safety. Ultimately, everyone needs to know that higher dosages can have a laxative effect. The general question when taking magnesium orally is: what really gets into the cell. What many do not know is that the transport maximum for fat- and water-soluble substances in the intestine has decreased by almost 20 percent in the last 80 years, so that the absorption of magnesium is hardly guaranteed - this often leads to an increase in the dose and at the same time to diarrhea. That's why I recommend transdermal application, among other things. With very good products, this has few side effects and is easy to use. In the case of an extremely severe magnesium deficiency, a high-dose infusion can also be advisable.
